What I liked

I enjoyed working with a team of like-minded individuals. I also enjoyed working by myself more than I had anticipated.

What I wish was different

I wish I could have made more connections. My internship was fully virtual and I was only able to go into the office once, so I did not get to have very impactful conversations with my peers.

Advice

Ask a ton of questions! People get scared to ask questions because it may seem like you are bugging your team, but it really just shows that you are trying to do your work to the best of your ability.
